Operating Continuous Flow Hydraulic Equipment - New Holland T6010 Operator's Manual

IMPORTANT: Always use the 'float' position to
retract a single-acting cylinder. The 'retract' position
is for double-acting cylinders only.
NOTE: If a single-acting cylinder is disconnected in
the extended position, while supporting a load, the
hose may be reconnected to the remote control valve
but will not operate until the pressure is released.
Proceed as follows:
Connect the hose, as described above.
•
Start the engine and momentarily pressurise the
•
cylinder by moving the remote control valve
lever/joystick to the extend position and then
immediately to the float position to retract the
cylinder and lower the implement.
Operating Continuous Flow Hydraulic
Equipment
Continuous flow hydraulic equipment (e.g. hydraulic
motors) should be connected to a remote control
valve coupler with the feed hose (2) connected to the
right--hand coupler and the return hose (1)
connected to the left--hand coupler of the same
valve.
With the remote control valve lever or joystick in the
'float' position the motor will be stationary. The
hydraulic motor will operate if the lever or joystick is
moved to the 'retract' (lower) position.
IMPORTANT: To stop the motor, move the lever or
joystick to the 'float' position. The motor will then slow
to a halt and not stop abruptly causing internal line
pressures which could damage the motor seals.
Observe the following to further protect the tractor
and equipment:
Do not open any by-pass valve in the equipment
•
or motor. Use the flow control valve to control the
rate of flow or speed of the motor.
To assure optimum hydraulic oil cooling and
•
prevent overheating, operate continuous flow
equipment at the highest flow setting (by use of
the flow control valve (1), and lowest engine
speed that will give the required machine
performance and speed.
